    Time for a 2020 re-intro: Hello, new followers! I am a cell biologist who specializes in imaging what happens when a virus infects a cell — so expect colorful 📸 🔬 I care about , , in STEM, 🏳️‍🌈 rights, & my 5 dogs… say hi!

    Polio vaccine Cloning In vitro fertilisation Henrietta's "immortal" cells made these possible. But did you know her cells were taken from her cervix & used extensively WITHOUT her permission? I highlight the woman behind these cells. Full vid & subscribe:

  5. Alright, muting this. Take my tweet as a “pls read before sign” mixed w “life happens, it isn’t fair to penalize trainees for this.” Like, who thinks we purposely WANT to start a shitty paying postdoc “just for fun” with the intention of leaving quit shortly after? Anyhow, ❤️

    This is not discussed for the T32 & F32 fellowships, but you are required to pay the fellowship back if you don’t give a year of “service” (essentially be a pd or help science move forward in a manner). So if 6 months in, you have a toxic PI? You pay it back or find another lab.

    I had a kid and left a lab that was really into faking data/bad methods (nothing was repeatable and I refused to use my time following up artifacts & fakery) then I got one of these letters, lol

    There is a clause that says you don't have to payback if it causes undue hardship. I asked the office if having suffered abuse counted. She said no. I asked what would. She said if I got cancer and couldn't go back to work. Me- so I have to die? Her- LOL but yeah

  9. I remember me back in 2017 doubting whether or not signing this was a good idea. While I will be forever grateful for this fellowship, boy has it been stressful. Want to quit and open up a dog bakery? Ok, but give us all that money back (true story, I really wanted a dog bakery)

  10. There are plenty of blogs on this topic already so I will not go any further. My personal advice: if you don’t feel like postdoc-ing is for you from the beginning, do NOT apply for an NRSA and do NOT sign the agreement form (which means no grant but whatevs). It’s stressful af.

  11. PSA: if you receive an NIH NRSA fellowship, make sure you fully understand how the Payback Agreement works. About 40% of why I did a 2nd postdoc was so that I didn’t have to payback all the money I had received during my 1st postdoc. I FINALLY fulfilled this stressful nightmare.

    Listen y’all stop killing people’s vibe on here. If someone has a cool experience in nature for the first time, don’t jump in talking bout some “This happens all the time” or “This is extremely common” CELEBRATE WITH THEM. ADD TO THEIR KNOWLEDGE IN A NOT-BUZZ-KILLING-WAY.

    It still amazes me how can connect us all. One day you are chatting with “online strangers” & next thing you know you are co-facilitating a lecture w them while on opposite sides of the country. Excited to be joining forces with here in just a bit!
